ENEB Master Thread

[Wowbagger]

I think ENEB are aware there's an ongoing controversy about the 50-exam option, and if the rumours about one exam per module are true then that's a positive step. When I did my Masters at a top UK university, more than half the modules were passed by examination - although that was proctored in a brick-and-mortar location. Even if the ENEB diplomas are non-proctored, going to a 500+ questions per Masters degree is a lot more credible and then deflects suggestions of diploma milling.

Having said that, if the more credible 500+ questions version becomes the norm (probably costing 300-500 Euros), in future the early adopters who paid 99 Euros for a 50-question Masters will have got a bargain. Because on paper no-one will know the difference between one version or the other, as presumably both versions will come with a transcript. Of course, this isn't unusual. In many countries, exams have become easier or harder over the years as exam boards change their grading systems. The UK O-levels I completed in 1986 were much, much easier than the O-levels completed by students a decade earlier. Yet, on paper, the Maths O-level I received is of the same value as the Maths O-level someone received in 1970s. In reality, I had a far easier examination. I know this because at the time we were shown past exam papers and were shocked at how difficult they were.
